  • Funny thing is, I’ve relocated DCs too and we did the opposite. We had rolling racks and we wrapped the entire rack with everything still in it and did a padded wrap with anti-tip indicators.

    The biggest thing to watch out for was we used a temperature controlled truck to ensure there wasn’t a swing in humidity or temps to cause condensation and then let the racks sit in the new locations for 24 hours before power on

    Moving 85 racks with literally hundreds of disks and we only lost 4 disks over the next 6 months which was in line with our normal failure rate. No need to tear down and re-rack.



  • Yea good thing you didn’t. MSHTA is the app that lets you run Microsoft HTML Apps (usually used for their help articles). Those can contain JavaScript or VBScript code. And since you’re pasting it in a Run box it’ll happily execute it, even if it’s a remote source.

    Generally it would only run as your user (you’re not admin are you?), which would still be enough to make your life miserable, but it could also try to run known exploits and raise itself to admin and own your whole computer.








  • Something else that people don’t think about besides the backend server is the connectivity. A lot of these cars use LTE with eSIMs that can’t be replaced, and getting an internet package for it will be next to impossible since Tesla gets them at bulk rates. Once upon a time cars did allow “bring your own SIM cards” but not anymore. Also as cars get older the cell networks get shut down. Some companies did offer upgrades but that was few and far between. Most just said “sorry, you’re SOL”.

    So even if you could hack your car, your car won’t have any way of talking to a custom endpoint.










  • I’ll try to do the best I can. The Kennedy Center has long been revered as one of the most prestigious auditoriums in the nation. If you performed there you “made it” and were one of the top performers of your field. Pianists and other musicians, classical singers, etc.

    Well recently Trump fired the board and put in his lackeys that instated him as the chair. The “J6 choir” I believe was a group of people who were in prison for their attempts to overthrow the government on January 6th and were subsequently jailed.

    I’m sure you can see where this is going from here but we’ve gone from the best of the best performing there to a political stunt of people who tried to overthrow the government and don’t have the talent behind it.
